What's new about Zoom Air?

The Gurgaon-based airline is expected to prioritise areas that have not been focused on by existing airlines.

Also, the carrier's aircrafts produced by Bombardier are versatile for short sectors flying and aptly suited for Indian Tier II and Tier III cities.

And additionally, the company’s director Koustav M Dhar has announced that Zoom Airlines would have a 1:1 ratio of female pilots on board.

What will be the route of Zoom Air flights?

Zoom Airlines plans to connect major cities such as Mumbai and Delhi to underserved parts of the country, such as Shillong, Dharamshala, Ziro Valley in Arunachal Pradesh.

Over the next few months, Zoom Air has stated that it will add daily flights to Aizawl, Aurangabad, Chandigarh, Dharamshala, Dimapur, Hyderabad, Kullu, Jorhat, Lucknow, Ranchi, Mumbai, Srinagar and Shillong.

“Zoom Air shall fill the gap of sectors that are less catered to by other scheduled airlines. We are termed a premium commuter airline, with on-board Zoom Eat – a styled snacks and beverages service; a new initiative to have 1:1 lady pilots on board – operating from Premium T3 in New Delhi and T2 in Mumbai,” informed Dhar.

“We envisage 18-20 per cent year-on-year growth on such underserved and un-served airports and we have seen such massive air traffic growth for stations like Vijaywada, Tirupati, Ranchi and Chandigarh. It's all about connectivity and regular reliable services," Dhar added.
